Impact: reduce memory usage, use new cpumask API.

Replace the affinity and pending_masks with cpumask_var_t's.  This adds
to the significant size reduction done with the SPARSE_IRQS changes.

The added functions (init_alloc_desc_masks &amp; init_copy_desc_masks) are
in the include file so they can be inlined (and optimized out for the
!CONFIG_CPUMASKS_OFFSTACK case.)  [Naming chosen to be consistent with
the other init*irq functions, as well as the backwards arg declaration
of "from, to" instead of the more common "to, from" standard.]

Includes a slight change to the declaration of struct irq_desc to embed
the pending_mask within ifdef(CONFIG_SMP) to be consistent with other
references, and some small changes to Xen.

Tested: sparse/non-sparse/cpumask_offstack/non-cpumask_offstack/nonuma/nosmp on x86_64

Impact: build fix on ia64

ia64's default_affinity_write() still had old cpumask_t usage:

 /home/mingo/tip/kernel/irq/proc.c: In function `default_affinity_write':
 /home/mingo/tip/kernel/irq/proc.c:114: error: incompatible type for argument 1 of `is_affinity_mask_valid'
 make[3]: *** [kernel/irq/proc.o] Error 1
 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

update it to cpumask_var_t.

Impact: Reduce stack usage, use new cpumask API.  ALPHA mod!

Main change is that irq_default_affinity becomes a cpumask_var_t, so
treat it as a pointer (this effects alpha).

Impact: change existing irq_chip API

Not much point with gentle transition here: the struct irq_chip's
setaffinity method signature needs to change.

Fortunately, not widely used code, but hits a few architectures.

Note: In irq_select_affinity() I save a temporary in by mangling
irq_desc[irq].affinity directly.  Ingo, does this break anything?

Impact: change calling convention of existing cpumask APIs

Most cpumask functions started with cpus_: these have been replaced by
cpumask_ ones which take struct cpumask pointers as expected.

These four functions don't have good replacement names; fortunately
they're rarely used, so we just change them over.

<title>sparse irq_desc[] array: core kernel and x86 changes</title>

Impact: new feature

Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.

To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
irq_desc pointers.

When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
request_irq()).

This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
uses desc-&gt;chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

Impact: preserve user-modified affinities on interrupts

Kumar Galak noticed that commit
18404756765c713a0be4eb1082920c04822ce588 (genirq: Expose default irq
affinity mask (take 3))

overrides an already set affinity setting across a free /
request_irq(). Happens e.g. with ifdown/ifup of a network device.

Change the logic to mark the affinities as set and keep them
intact. This also fixes the unlocked access to irq_desc in
irq_select_affinity() when called from irq_affinity_proc_write()
